NGC 2273 AO imaging: PISCES@LBT

Lack of multi-band imaging No dusty structures morphology

R+I = 15.5+15.0+ poor SRSeeing ~ 1”Still enough to detect 3m-spirals

NGC 2273: simulations

Gaseous diskExponential density profile• Mdisk = 23*107 Msun

• R = 100 pc• z = 30 pc(Sani +12, PdBI data)

SB(r)a morphology

GADGET2 (Springel +05)

• Static axisymmetric potential from SIS
